EKY's close proximity to the Mercedes-Benz "auto corridor" provides many businesses with timely GA support. Our nearness to the Jefferson Metropolitan Parks at McCalla and Lakeshore and the Birmingham Regional Intermodal Facility facilitates timely corporate and freight options. 

EKY is also an ideal GA airport for travelers visiting Ross Bridge Golf Resort & Spa featuring two Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail courses as well as the Regions Traditional at Shoal Creek. NASCAR and Barber race fans frequent EKY while many Porsche Driving School participants begin their experience with a flight to EKY.

Fans attending the SEC Baseball Tournament appreciate the short drive to the Hoover Met while musicians and fans enjoy quick access to Oak Mountain Amphitheater.
